    Hi Ashish Patni,

    by looking to prebert and relxpert logfiles, it seems to be related to the parsing of the rawfile as it is here:

    Error(RELXP-198): The RelXpert simulator failed to parse .rawfile1.sp because of the following error: 

    ".rawfile1.sp" 206: SPICE `.usim_opt' cards are not

            supported in Spectre language sections. Use `simulator lang = spice' to

            introduce spice language sections.

    does this mean that I must use Spice instead of spectre? 

     For the version : I am using MMSIM7.1 .

    thank you for your help.

    Amel.
